25. DALETH. My soul cleaves unto the dust; quicken me according to thy word.
26. I have declared my ways, and thou didst hear me; teach me thy statutes.
27. Make me to understand the way of thy precepts; so I shall meditate of thy wondrous works.
28. My soul melts for heaviness; strengthen me according to thy word.
29. Remove from me the way of lying, and from thy law grant me mercy.
30. I have chosen the way of truth; I have laid thy judgments before me.
31. I have stuck unto thy testimonies; O Lord, put me not to shame.
